system.
Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV,follow these recommendations and precautions:
27) Always sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV and
as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear
dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if
sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV
off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove
the source of reflections while viewing the TV.
28) Always unplug the TV before
cleaning. Never use liquid or
aerosol cleaners.
29)

30) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air
temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is
first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This
can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear
faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to
allow the condensation to evaporate.
31) For added protection of your TV from lightning and power
surges, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the
antenna from the TV if you leave the TV unattended or
unused for long periods of time.
32) During normal use, the TV may make < _

or continuous, unplug the power cord _'
and contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Center
33) Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Display: If a
fixed (non-moving) pattern or image remains on the TV
screen for extended periods of time, the image can become
permanently ingrained in the cathode ray tube(s) of the TV
and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type
of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.
Never leave the TV on for extended periods of time while it
is displaying the following images or formats:
, Fixed Images, including but not limited to PiP/POP
windows, closed captions, video game patterns, TV

Welcome to Toshiba
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest color TVs on the
market. The goal of this manual is to guide you through setting up and
operating your Toshiba TV as quickly as possible.
You may need to purchase other audio or video cables to connect your
equipment. See "Connecting your TV" on page 7 for more information.
Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully before
you begin.
Exploring your new TV
You can operate your TV by using the buttons on the front panel or the
remote control. The front and back panels provide all the inputs you will
need to connect other equipment to your TV.

19 for details.
Notes:
* To open the menu system, you can either
press MENU on the remote control or
simultaneously press both VOLUME
buttons (A and V) on the front panel.
* When a menu is open, to select the desired
setting, you can use either the arrow
buttons on the remote control or the
CHANNEL b,/V and VOLUME Air
buttons on the front panel.
Selecting a location for the TV
Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform in a location where
light does not directly hit the screen.
. Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow proper ventilation.
Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which may damage
the TV.

Connecting your TV
. A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your
antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use "F' connectors.
Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded accord-
ing to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The red
audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio
cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear
panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded in
the same manner as the cables.
. S-video cables provide better picture performance than standard
video cables. S-video cables can only be used with S-video
compatible components.
, Component video cables provide better picture performance than
S-video cables. Component video cables can only be used with
component video compatible components.
Digital audio coaxial cable is for use with digital audio equipment
that has digital audio output (see page 13.)

J3W41121A(E) P07-13 7 14/03/2006, 3:30 PM
Connecting a cable converter box or Antenna
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable
channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some
cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is
scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the
use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable
company.
Option 1 : For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service
For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box,
connect the incoming 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna
Jack on the back of the television.
Option 2 : For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service
If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/
Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna
Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown
below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler
box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to
select channels.
Option 3 : For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable
with Scrambled Premium Channels
If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are
unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (some-
times called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box from the cable
installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown
below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any
nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position,
tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually
channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.
Note:
When you use a converter box with your TV,
there may be features that you cannot
program using the remote control such as
labeling channels, blocking channels, and
programming your favorite channels.

Using the remote control
Preparing the remote control for use
With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most cable TV
converters/satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players together, even if
they are different brands. In addition to operating the TV, the remote
control can operate most cable TV converters, satellite receivers,
VCRs, and DVD players, regardless of their brand. The remote control
is pre-programmed to operate most Toshiba satellite receivers, VCRs,
and DVD players. To control a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not pre-programmed to operate), you must
first program the remote control. See "Programming the remote control
to operate your other devices" on the next page.
Installing the remote control batteries
To install the batteries:
1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.
2. Install two "AAA" size batteries. Match the + and - signs on the
batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.
Note:
The TV remote control may not operate your
VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter.
Refer to the owner's manual supplied with
your other devices to see which features may
be available. Additionally, the remote control
